SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
The M25P20 is a 2 Mbit (256K x 8) Serial Flash
Memory, with advanced write protection mecha-
nisms, accessed by a high speed SPI-compatible
bus.
M25P20
The memory can be programmed 1 to 256 bytes at
a time, using the Page Program instruction.
The memory is organized as 4 sectors, each con-
taining 256 pages. Each page is 256 bytes wide.
Thus, the whole memory can be viewed as con-
sisting of 1024 pages, or 262,144 bytes.

The whole memory can be erased using the Bulk
Erase instruction, or a sector at a time, using the
Sector Erase instruction.
In order to meet environmental requirements, ST
offers these devices in ECOPACK® packages.
ECOPACK® packages are Lead-free and RoHS
compliant.
ECOPACK is an ST trademark. ECOPACK speci-
fications are available at: www.st.com.
Note: 1. There is an exposed die paddle on the underside of the
MLP8 package. This is pulled, internally, to V , and
SS
must not be allowed to be connected to any other voltage
or signal line on the PCB.
2. See PACKAGE MECHANICAL section for package di-
mensions, and how to identify pin-1.
